better than zeal? why

i bought comic zeal last night and like it a lot.

I honestly don't remember! I think that Comic Zeal might have had some weirdness with page flipping in the past.

do you guys use this in addition to comixology or in place of it?

FWIW, I use ComicBookLover: http://www.bitcartel.com/comicbooklover/

me too.

great website, screenshot really sells it

Late but my podcast app of choice is called Castro and it's pretty slick and designy and works quite well.

silby thank you SO MUCH for the castro link. i've been using instacast and while it's better than the default podcast app it's fiddly. Castro feels much more natural. the big type helps too! #old

I spent a few bucks on Pocket Casts instead of continuing to struggle with Apple's Podcasts app. Very happy with it so far.

xpost i was just taking a peek at the lyons article. idk tho

do you guys use your iphone/ipad/other ios device as an alarm clock?

I do.

sure

i stopped about 2 months ago after the third time it went off silently making me super late for work. Each time I had turned the ringer level up before bed. Said fuck it, got a battery operated travel clock.

haha. see, i want to just trust it though. that that will never happen. but right now i'm using this dedicated thing

did you have it on mute?

ugh i'm gonna have to come up with a checklist so i never fuck it up

mine works fine

i have limited access to funds right now and would like this to save me $25

i've been using that sleep cycle app for years and it works like a charm

i should say this was just the alarm function within the ios Clock, not a dedicated app.

it's fine. i did oversleep (by eight minutes) a couple nights ago when i had the ringer too low. first time that's happened in like a year.

recommend using Ella Fitzgerald "Fascinating Rhythm" as your alarm sound. seriously.

On mine, it always seems to work, regardless if I'm on mute or whatever. I use the standard clock app.

IME the "silent alarm" actually means I was really fucking tired and chose the wrong alert tone before falling asleep

I think that was the explanation for one of my incidents, but the other times it really seemed to have chosen the "get fired from your job" alert tone on its own contra my instructions.

use my phone as alarm, usually it goes fine. I like that I can change the tone so that if the tone I've been using starts to make me feel nauseous while waking me up I can switch to something new.

i use it as an alarm clock when im traveling

otherwise i dont like to sleep in the same orom as my phone

YOU GET ME FOR 16 HOURS A DAY ALREADY

iPhone alarms work great

iPhone has been substitute clock-radio alarm for years now. Use the sleep-after-x-minutes function going to bed and waking with either sleep cycle or the standard clock.

staind playing in the background is a nice touch

Old Apple lust object: mid-2010 MacBook Pro, screen glass slightly cracked but the LCD seems fine ... anyone ever had MacBook glass replaced or done it themselves? What kind of cost am I looking at if I take it somewhere? Is it worth trying to fix it myself?

My preferred solution would be a gleamy new Air, but current financial circumstances dictate a repair or maybe just using it as is ... fortunately the cracks are only at one edge of the screen (for now).

You don't have to be that guy. You can be whoever you want to be.

bbl, lots of news and tweets to follow

Cannot see how this isn't a crazy waste of money. But Apple has money to burn.
